Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia.

Wikipedia is not a mere directory of links; nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Since Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, external links do not alter search engine rankings.

Please note that Wikipedia is not a good place for promotion of a website, book, or company. Adding links to sites your are affiliated with or books you wrote is generally a bad idea. Continuing to do so will get your account blocked and the site added to the spam blacklist. While this may seem harsh, Wikipedia is an ever-attractive target for advertising, so a pretty firm reaction is needed. --TeaDrinker 02:56, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
